How do I Freelance Myself? | Discussion with a new Freelancer | Joel Johnson of Matic Creative

This is episode 2 of 2. Subscribe to be notified of more content like this.

We’re back in the fray to discuss jumping ship from your 9 to 5 and taking on the inevitable GIG ECONOMY! In this episode of the Do Video Podcast we’ll discuss your more burning questions about everything from becoming a freelancer, networking and selling yourself as a doer not as an expendable employee (which you’re not.)

You can find our guest/newbie freelancer Joel for your own animation and video work at maticcreative.com @matic_creative & at [email protected] 

When starting something new you’ll always have a lot of questions, but when taking on freelancing/supporting yourself financially many people just think that they “can’t” do it. Of course it’s not as easy as posting a photo on Instagram or even switching internet providers, but a rewarding experience is never easy and if they were, we'd all be doing them, all the time. In this episode we touch on questions asked by a real newbie freelancer, someone who has the skills but not the work to pay the bills, yet! See our timestamps below to see what we cover in this episode.
